Remote Desktop & VNC Connection

Natively Remote Desktop Server exists as an option for remote access in most Windows products. Have the end-user enable it by checkbox during the host installation, when it prompts for a license serial to use. Once installed, and connected, use it as a way to get immediate access to the host. We've built a great way to connect our secured internal network without opening any ports. This of course would be more of a full featured remote (with time tracking capability per connection). However, we give you the option to use any other service you choose to set up. The browser remote works very well, on anyones home pc browser or cell phone for both RDP and VNC protocols.

Port Forwarding

You can add any number of ports to forward from your host to be accessed only by a single IP address, or subnet. You may also open them to the public. It is possible to forward non-windows machines like your video camera system through the Windows host you've installed Switchr on. Host a dedicated service, without having access to a router.

Hosts Menu

This is where you'll find all your created, and/or assigned hosts. You can see here the menu for each host as well. The IP address of your proxied host, will depend on the location chosen for installation of that host.

Backup/Restore to/from Amazon S3 w/Versioning

Don't lose data to Ransom-ware. Setup, and control your hosts backup schedule to an Amazon S3 bucket using your own API credentials. Amazon is free to try out for the first year, up to 5GB. Pay only for what you use. The storage is dirt cheap, but the transfer and listing of data can increase the cost of your bill significantly if you need access the data frequently.

Backup/Restore to/from your private FTP or SFTP Server

If you have a private FTP/SFTP at home, on your web server, or at your office connected to a large hard drive; perhaps this is the backup method is for you. Keep in mind, that It does not have versioning capability like S3, and we recommend using a RAID array of some sort for data redundancy, which will prevent data loss on that system. This method can be quite a bit less expensive for those needing to access data more frequently, and have a need for large amounts of data storage.

Point-of-Sale Reporting

Currently available for back office server machines running Aloha POS software. Report settings are loaded dynamically based on your existing Aloha report settings, as are the dates you can pick from to report from. E-mail an attached csv report, SMS someone a private link to download one, or view it directly on your phone or PC. Note: You must create the first export from within Aloha Manager for each report type, for it to work. You only need to do this one time at initial setup.

Windows Client, and Taskbar Icon

This application runs in the background unless you start it manually. The hosts user can use it to stop and start the service, or retrieve files from an existing backup. While running in the taskbar, the icon status will change with activity, or error. Notifications will pop-up during these events. A log resides inside of the Switchr installation directory, for debugging. Typically, there is no need for the host user to have it open task bar at all. It is meant to be controlled remotely.
